try under the sanction and encour- agenent of its Government, but es- pecially Of President Diaz, who has proved the ablest, wisest and most patriotic ruler Mexico has had for many years. The Conservative and anti-American party succeeded in defeating Diaz and in electing Con zalez in 1880, but so disastrous did the latter's rule prove that the peo- pie were only too glad to re-elect Diaz in 1884. Now it is proposed by the Liberal party to so amend the Constitution as to enable Diaz to hold over for another four years, and so wise and prosperous has his rule been that the people are mani festing much enthusiasm over the prospect Of his retention in power. 4G Is IIOt kO ue NOnuCfSU dG tIldt lilC Conservatives should feel chagrined but that they should find expression to their feelings in savage denun- citations of the United States is un- fortunate for themselves revealing, as it does, a deplorable lack of com mon senee. Manifestly the wisest course for both nations is 10 open up all the possible avenues to com merce between them, and in the friendly intercourse which. would necessarily ensue and augment, a barrier to war would not only be raised, but a gradual plotting out of the petty animnsities now exist ing in certain of the more ignorant and bigoted classes might be ex- pected in a short time.-San Fran cisco Examiner.

We observe with regret that the leading newspaper of the opposi- tion to President Diaz in Mexico has burst forth into most violent attack upon Americans and their interests in that country, There is nothing new in this, but for a time the Tiempo had ceased to pour forth the yials of its wrath, and the hope was entertained that 1t had cooled off for good; but it seems that the recent elections have stir red it up again, and now 1t is more bitter, if possible, than it eyer was. Were any benefit to be derived by Mexico from the policy, or rather lack of 1t, which chara0terizes the Tiempos course, the influence 1t yields would not be so lamentable
 It's bigotry, sectional and race ha
 tired blind 1t to the extraordinary developments which have attended the investment of American capital in mines, railroads and the innum- erable enterprises upon which our people have embarked in that coun-

THE Peralta grant which has re. gently been unearthcd and brought to the fore in the southern part ol this Territory covers a vast extent
 of territory and is estimated to be worth SI00,000,000. This pretended grant embraces some of the best and most thickly settled agricul-
 tUral lands in Arizona, besides the
 richest and best developed mineral
 sections. The agricultural lands
 are drained by the Gila, Salt, San Pedro and San Carlos rivers. On it, in addition to the precious me-
 tals, are found lime, gypsum, iron, chrome and coal. Besides all thls,
 1t takes in some of the most prom incnt cities and towns in that part
 of the Territory, among which are
 MAricopa, Standard, Phoenix, Casa
 Grande, Globe, Tempe, Maryville,
 Hayden, Sweetwatcr, Cottonwood,
 Pinal, Florence, Dudleyville, Camp
 Goodwin, Pioneer, McMillenville and Riverside. The Government
 of the United States claims all this
 land and has thrown it upon the
 market for settlement, but notwith- standing this fact, Reavis, the man
 who is manipulating this gigantic steal, has succeeded in interesting with him men of abundant means and considerable influence, and
 claims that he has sufficient evi, dence to establish their title beyond
 a doubt. These gentlemen might just as we'll extend their bounda-
 ries a little and take in the entire Territory.

THE Fl Paso nterRepublics gives the following thrilling account of the adventures are narrow es- cape from starvation and fatigue during prospecting trip: Peter B. Reed, quite we'll known miner and prospector who makes his headquarters in this city, came in to-day after long trip in the San Espuela mountains where he had as frightful an experience as men live to tell about. lie was on a prospecting trip with George Bailcr, of Deming, but they separated at Jonas and both took different routes into the mountains expecting to meet again in a couple of weeks. The country that Reed headed to- ward is penetrated by a blind trail made by the Spaniards, and is sev- eral hundred years old. In places 1t Is almost obliterated and fallen rendered much of it an extremely perilous pathway. After he was out for four or five days he lost his way, got off the trail and had not the rcmotest idea where he was, save for the points of the compass. To add to his misfOrtunes his burro fell and broke its two front legs. He took off portion of the pro- visions and attempted to make his way out, but wandered through the rocky defiles for eight days. For the last three he had nothing to eat and no water.
 Reed became so weak on the second day that he was unable to walk and crawled under the shade of big boulder to die. He was probably delirious, for he remem- be;ed nothing more until he was found by party of Nex;cans some distance away on the following day. They nursed him back to something like strength and sent a guide with him to Janos. From thence he came to El Paso.
 He shows the effects of his dread ful experience in his drawn and haggard face and 2 trembling of his limbs that he has not yet recov, eren from. He says that there isn't enough gold or silver in all those mountains to tempt him to go through that tramp again.

On this side of the Mogollons their headquarters are on Canyon Greek. On the other side it iS Pleasant Valley, at lie ranch of the Graham boys. Our informant tells us that they have made this place into g fortification, with rort-holes commanding every approach. In side it is a perfect arsenal, crowded with arms and ammunition, and we'll proyisioncd for a long siege. The fort is never left unoccupied- there are always five or six men on duty, and in case of an attack these men are to hold the fort until rein forcements arrive. These are facts, as told us by man of undoubted integrity, and who is far from be- ing an alarmist.
 Such q state of affairs have ex- isted on the frontier before. The people have borne it, until "for- bearance ceased to be virtue" and when that time arrived, have taken the law into their own hands and acted as lawyer, judge and jury; the sentence pronounced al- ways being death. It is time, and fully time, for the people to do the same in this case, and we feel safe in predicting that the best citizens of both counties will uphold them in any measures they may adopt for the protection of their property and their lives.

FROM a reliable source we learn the following in regard to the band lof outlaws that have infested the
 western portion of this and the eastern end of Yavapai county fer so long a time Instead Of the
 warnings they have had through the HERALD, having a tendency to check them in their depredations, it has apparently made them more defiant and bold in their lawless- ness. One can scarcely believe that a set of men could commit so many and such atrocious crimes, and car ry it on fer so long a time, with impunity; but such is undoubtedly the fact.
 Andy Cooper. one of the boldest and most daring of these despera- does, told one of the leading citi- zens of this county to his face, that Ee had lain in wait for him for two or three weeks, for no other pur- pose than to take his life We sup press the gen l.mans name from prudential motives. They go openly and in broad daylight, and drive off horses in sight of their owners. Go boldly to honest men and make overturcs 10 them 10 join their gang--promise them protection for their stock, and that they will steal their neighbors poor, and eventual ly drive them out of the country. They are at this time riding the mountain trails in squads of from three or four to eight or ten, and have become such a terror to the inhabitants of the locality in which they have thelr haunts, that the respectable and law-abiding people do their travelling altogether in the night, while those who have incur red the displeasure or ill-will of any of the gang, are compelled, through fear of their lives to live in the bush-dare not go to their homes, except under the cover of darkness. There is scarcely a ranoher in that portion of Apache and Yavapai that has not lost more or less stock, and undoubtedly this gang are the thieves.

The daughter of Captain of Po- lice w. R. Thomas presents pc culiarly interesting case to medical men. She is given 10 catleptic frances in which she remains for weeks without regaining conscious ness. 1t one time sine slept five weeks and at another six. She Is now suffering from one of the at tacks. Her body is rigid, and all appearance of life has departed. It is oyer five weeks since she went into the trance, and at no time since has she regained consciousness for more than an hour. For four weeks she slept without once waking, but now she wakens once every twenty four hours and remains awake for a few minutes. She takes no nour- ishment all this time, but does not lose flesh CT strength. In fact, dur ing a six weeks trance, though talk ing no food, she gained between four and five pounds in weight. At times she is sensible of what is go- ing on around her, but is incapa- ble of indicating the fact. Medi- cal skill has exhausted itself in the endeayor to effect a cure, but the frances seem to be beyond the skill of the physioian.-Gan Francisco Chronicle.
